Sidonia

I was very heavily involved in name research the other night and I came across this name. I am facinated by a lot of really OLD names. Some of them are beautiful, but some are so ugly! Anyway, I love researching names from the 1700's and 1800's. I came across Sidonia (pronounced sih-dohn-yah) and was wondering what you all think. I personally LOVE this but I can't find anyone else who does LOL. Maybe that's why the name is very uncommon/not used anymore. So, am I crazy for liking this name, or is everyone else missing out?

From the look of it, I want to say it's an italian name, only I've never heard it here. Anyway, by roman phonetics it's pronounced See-DAWN-yah (or See-DAWN-ee-ah, but you wouldn't really hear the last two vocals as separate)
